Spacer help...(3rd try, it's not posting for me!)
Hey,
I just got 18x8.5 BBS CH's with 235/40 Potenza S0-3's, and Bilstein PSS-9 coilovers. I want to lower the car to set the wheel well right on the rim, but I also wanted to fill the wells. What size spacers do you guys (and girls) recommend for me to get in order to do this?
Thanks a lot
Nate

depends on the offset of your wheels...if you want the front and rear to be flush with the fenders
the rear spacers will usually be larger than the rears. With 8.5" rims, you'll want the fronts to have an offset of about 20mm = (wheel offset + spacer), and the rears to be about 10 - 15 mm. If the BBS offset are around 35mm, you'll want 15mm f and 20 or 25 mm r spacers to get down to the numbers I indicated.
